Then he phoned his accuser again and again and again on Wednesday, state police Cpl. Gregory Emery said.

Colli was arrested Wednesday afternoon during his appearance at an unpaid-rent hearing in the office of District Judge Michael F. Faulkner. Police charged Colli with harassment over the alleged phone calls.

In the Thursday hearing on the harassment charge, his bail was revoked and he was sent to Lehigh County Jail.

Colli's preliminary hearing Tuesday on a simple assault charge resulted in the condition that he avoid contact with the person he allegedly assaulted.

The simple assault allegedly happened Jan. 10 in Upper Macungie Township. Police did not identify the person they say was assaulted.
